Both are directed by Shunji Iwai and have his signature style. Beautiful films in all respects, that will appeal to those who love quiet, introspective, slow films that don't spell things out for the viewer. I honestly believe that the director is someone who has great respect for his audience.

Same writer-director: Shunji Iwai. Both movies are beautiful, with a special charm. "Hana and Alice" will appeal to a wider audience. "April Story" may be boring to some, but it is a gem of a movie, for those who can appreciate it.

The relationship between the two protagonists is similar. A troubled schoolgirl and an older male living on the outskirts of society.

Both MLs are highly placed chaebol heirs sharing the a kidnapping incident at a young age. Both have nightmares about that incident even as adults and have very hard time letting go.The FLs of both dramas were also part of their traumatic childhood experience.

They have super power.. But bloody romance is more misterious, dramatic, the guys are all handsome and a much better !! The girl who plays bloody romance have a strong mind and is smart. Have a try, I think you wont regret!!
